Join us in
In 2023, we teamed up with the American Cancer Society with the goal to raise $10,000 in advance of the Hit The Road Walk/Run event at Road America on November 4th. With the unbelievable support of family and friends, many local businesses, and strangers alike, we reached an AMAZING total of $50,625!
All funds raised directly support groundbreaking research and critical resources for people with cancer in Wisconsin. Join us as we turn our focus to 2024 in hopes of raising another $50,000 to change the ending for many others who are, or will, battle cancer.

Bob is our reason.
A cure is our cause.
Almost everyone has been impacted by the devastating effects of cancer in some way and our family is no exception.
Bob Lindorfer, the MVP of our ACS fundraising team, was diagnosed with stage 2B pancreatic cancer in July 2021. After months of aggressive chemotherapy treatments and a very invasive whipple surgery, he received the "all clear" in August 2022—only to discover a few short months later that the cancer had not only come back in his pancreas, but had also spread to his liver and lungs. Bob passed away peacefully at home on October 1, 2023.
We are honored to pick up the torch and continue his love and legacy for this organization to helping to change the ending for many others.
Every dollar makes a difference
2023 was our flagship year fundraising as a team for the American Cancer Society on a larger scale and our efforts truly served as a bright spot for Bob during difficult treatments and progression of his cancer.
We started with a goal to raise $10,000 and landed at a staggering $50,625!
We are completely blown away by the amazing support we experienced from family and friends, local businesses, and strangers alike. THANK YOU for your generosity and for sharing YOUR stories with us. We are forever grateful for every person who joined us in our efforts in both big and small ways.
Let's do it AGAIN in 2024!

Our amazing 2023 event sponsors
So many amazing local companies stepped up to support our Team Lindorfer fundraising events through donations of raffle items or monetary donations to support our ACS through our team. Without these organizations, fundraisers like ours wouldn't be possible. Every donation and every dollar makes a bigger difference than we may ever know.

Outside of fueling the amazing firepower of research needed to help determine causes and cures for all types of cancer, donations to ACS also fund incredible patient support programs.
Without these programs, the diagnosis and treatment journeys for so many individuals and families in Wisconsin (and nationally), would look very different.
